Justin Trudeau sets up a $595 million slush fund for journalists, but only for journalists he trusts. It's a shocking amount of money for journalists and for their millionaire and billionaire owners, but it's not just for them.
00:23:53.580A Quebec City transgender parent who sexually assaulted her young daughter will be serving a sentence in a women's jail after undergoing a sex change between the time of the crime and the conviction.
00:24:09.180The transgender woman, who cannot be named to protect the victim's identity, was sentenced to 18 months Monday for sexual assaults carried out when she was still a man.
00:24:21.880The 33-year-old, the victim's biological father, had pleaded guilty to crimes that took place in 2013 when the girl was just three.
00:26:03.200I don't know how satire stays in business anymore, because this is the kind of story in your wildest dreams you would never expect to see written up with a straight face and the pronouns he, her.
00:26:15.620And this is what happens when you insist that language follow the, you know, feelings or the beliefs in people's minds so that and you redefine objective facts and you call something that used to mean one thing by another name.
00:26:35.020And then you're forced to follow up with action that befits the new definition.
00:26:39.940So, if this person, this man, this biological man has told everybody and he is assuming that he, you know, he is a woman because he feels like a woman or maybe because he, who knows why.
00:26:53.900Then, uh, suddenly he's, uh, he's a woman who assaulted his daughter with his, I assume with his penis, you know, uh, this, this kind of, uh, muddle headed thinking is what got us into this mess.
00:27:08.300Uh, this man, this biological man, um, is a very sick individual.
00:27:14.500And by the way, it used to be, he's getting a sex change operation used to be the days when, if you wanted a sex change operation, uh, you had to be, go through some serious psychological assessment.
00:27:28.180Uh, they didn't just do anybody that came to the door.
00:27:31.360Uh, they, they weeded out those that they thought were afflicted with psychological serious problems, uh, and, and, and that they were not truly dysphoric,
00:27:42.520but that this was, uh, a function of, of other problems sounds to me like this biological man as, uh, other problems besides wanting to be a woman.
00:27:52.960Uh, so yeah, it's, it's a horrible story.
00:27:56.080Uh, it is, it is not a serious sentence.
00:27:59.640And I, I worry about the women that in the prison, uh, that this biological man who I suppose after he's had a sex change operation, they'll stop calling him a biological man,
00:28:10.560but he still will be only one without male genitalia.
00:28:13.700Um, and I worry about the women in that prison.
00:28:16.440We already know, uh, it's happened in England that, uh, a trans woman with still with male genitalia did assault, uh, women in prison when, when, uh, you know, in a woman's prison.
00:28:28.880And this, we're in, we're in a terrible situation because we have committed to believing, to, to, to, to, to creating laws, um, and to, uh, denying reality on the basis of some people's, uh, psychological affliction.
00:28:44.760Yeah, I can think of four reasons why, uh, this criminal would want to serve time in a women's prison instead of a men's prison.
00:28:54.520Um, the, the first reason, and it's the least important, and it's, uh, and I give it no weight, is because he thinks she's a woman now.
00:30:32.460Each one of them is awful, but all of them will be satisfied.
00:30:38.500Yeah, the, the, the real, uh, you know, this child that was assaulted is the victim of this particular, uh, biological man.
00:30:47.660But in general, the real victims of this entire movement, which has forced, compelled people to redefine words,
00:30:58.860uh, for example, the word woman now means a human being with a vagina, or it means a human being with a penis.
00:31:06.220I mean, that is basically what has happened to the word woman.
00:31:08.460And therefore the word woman has erased the unique biological category that women have fought so hard, you know, to have rights as women.
00:31:19.400And now they are seeing these rights erased, uh, in order to accommodate a very small percentage of, uh, biological males who have a female vision of themselves.
00:31:33.140And, uh, so now we're forced to call these trans women, women, uh, and to insist that they actually, you know, air quotes are women.
00:31:43.100But as a result, that gives them legal rights.
00:31:50.460I understand, you know, as I am not a radical feminist by any means, or I don't even call myself a feminist,
00:31:56.440but I am totally on the side of those feminists who are screaming bloody murder because their own, uh, category of, of human being is, has been superseded, uh, by the needs or the wishes or the rights of biological men.
00:32:16.220You know, I just read a story, uh, I think it was out in Vancouver of some lesbians being kicked out of a LGBT parade because the trans men were upset that these lesbians did not call them women.
00:32:32.640Imagine that lesbians kicked out of a lesbian parade because some guys said, you say it, say I'm a woman, say it, you have to say it.
00:32:46.480And they demand that because that's the affirmation they're craving.
00:32:52.800And I did a monologue on this a few months ago.
00:32:54.740Um, Corrections Canada now has an official policy promulgated from the Trudeau cabinet that if you are a trans man who is now in a women's prison,
00:33:04.720you can insist that your strip searches be done by a woman guard.
00:33:39.820Um, I think, I think, uh, look, rights often conflict and you have to decide, uh, you know, who, uh, there's such a thing as the rights of the,
00:33:50.760the majority rights as well as minority rights.
00:33:53.180This is a very tiny minority we're talking about, but if we had not, look, if we had, if we had insisted that the words,
00:34:00.280that words mean what they say they mean, then we'd have a category called women and we'd have a category called trans women.
00:34:10.660And that way you could say trans women can have their own units in prisons.
00:34:14.920We'll, we'll set up special units for trans women, uh, but trans women, for example, cannot be counselors in a rape crisis center because only women, uh, or, or a rape crisis center.
00:34:29.000I'm not saying men don't get raped, but that's, that's another shelter.
00:34:32.220That's another kind of shelter, but in rape crisis shelters for women, trans women may not serve as counselors.
00:34:38.280There was a case out in BC, uh, pursued by a trans woman who's very insistent, uh, that trans women should have the right to become counselors to real women, uh, after they've been raped.
00:34:52.440That's just exactly what a rape victim needs is to have a biological male, uh, giving her counsel.
00:34:57.860So this is, this, these are the kinds of situations we'll see more and more of because our government, uh, was too supine to insist when they put gender expression rights into, into a bill, uh, to, to define, you know, they're, they're not very good on definition.
00:35:16.020They're very good on, on vague, uh, theories and they like to look good.
00:35:20.460The optics look good, but gender expression is a weasel word.
00:35:24.260We don't know what it means and we're finding out that it means bad things as well as good things.
00:35:34.120And the man in question, a six foot something former pilot demanded access to the actual shelter itself.
00:35:42.560Um, and this went all the way up to the court of appeal.
00:35:46.080Let me just take a little tangent there.
00:35:47.340Cause you reminded me of this horrific story and actual rape victims were forced to take the stand in the, in court.
00:35:54.260And say, had that big man been waiting there in the rape relief shelter, I would literally have turned around and gone back onto the street rather than take shelter.
00:36:06.040He was so terrifying to the women and yet he's insisted he had this counterfeit human right to be a male counselor in a rape shelter.
00:36:16.960And that was more than 10 years ago, by the way, it's, it's even nuttier now, you know, Barbara, we all talk about Orwell and we say Orwellian, but maybe we all need to refresh ourselves.
00:36:27.980I remember when I read them, I've read the book 1984, probably three times.
00:37:38.1201984 was about authority and tyranny, but it actually, from the very first sentence, you know, the clock struck 13, working in the Ministry of Truth, literally changing old newspapers, revising history by cutting out articles that were no longer convenient and replacing them, and then doing it again.
00:38:01.200And you can never actually remember what the first one was.
00:38:05.720And when you have the Toronto Star actually writing a headline, transgender woman gets 18-month sentence for sexually assaulting daughter, and it's not until you dig in that you realize it was a man who assaulted his own daughter, that is actually what George Orwell warned us about.
00:38:30.080Indeed. No, I, listen, I don't have a problem with the word trans woman, because it identifies to me that this is a biological man who believes he is a woman and desires to live his life presenting as a woman.
00:38:44.580I have no problem with that, and I have no problem with calling that person she and her.
00:38:50.340Sure, I have no problem with it at all, but I do have a problem with being compelled to call a trans woman woman.
00:38:59.280I am a woman, that person is not, has nothing in common with me, except the belief that he has something in common with me.
00:39:08.380So, I'm not buying this, and the minute you buy that the word woman can mean either a biological man or a biological woman, the word woman has been erased.
00:39:22.940The category of women has been erased, and we are subject to the whims and the declared rights of biological men, very few, but very, very aggressive, the activists.
00:39:38.340I'm not talking about, I happen to know some trans women, delightful people just living their lives.
00:39:44.340It's their, and they admit they don't know what their dysphoria is all about, but this is the thing that makes them happy.
00:39:50.300Fine, live your life, but the activists, some of them are so aggressive and hateful, it seems to me they hate women.
00:40:34.340But there is nothing as swift and sharp as the establishment slapping back anyone who dares to challenge this new ideology of transgenderism.
00:41:17.380When this story first broke three or four weeks ago, the UK press and TV were telling it with the full emphasis that this guy was a good guy, nothing more than a journalist.
00:41:49.000But if we're going to cancel a diplomatic relation with a very momentous and important country, important economically, important geopolitically, important militarily, important as a counterweight to Iran,
00:42:01.620it has to be over more than a foreign citizen who is deeply entangled with terrorist groups.
00:42:40.560I know how hard it is to be a media tycoon.
00:42:44.220You know, Canada's largest media tycoon, the Thompson family, they own the Globe and Mail, Thompson Reuters, you've probably heard the name.
00:43:18.660If someone walks in and says, here's a bushel of gold coins for you, that's not real life.
00:43:28.600If it happens, there is a string attached.
00:43:32.640And the string attached to the $595 million that Justin Trudeau is shoving in front of the Thompsons, the CTVs, the Globals, Paul Godfrey of Post Media,
00:43:49.740It comes with the condition that they be loyal and obedient, or to use his word, trustworthy.
00:43:56.940If someone were to bring in a wheelbarrow of a million or $5 million in here, and I saw it with my eyes, and I rolled around in it for a bit, and I, you know,
00:44:07.780I admit it would be tempting, because I have to make payroll every two weeks here.
00:44:15.900But there is no point in being a government journalist.
00:44:21.600If you have that adjective in front of the word journalist, you are actually not a journalist.
00:44:27.020And nothing called the rebel can take money from the government.
00:44:36.800So I have to say, because I know what it is to make payroll every two weeks and to worry about costs,
00:44:44.020I understand why Paul Godfrey is doing a victory lap.
00:44:48.600But understand he and I are different.
00:44:50.540And his job, and he gets paid over a million bucks a year to do it, is to bring home the bacon for his hedge fund bosses.
